    May well be partly a financial decision. Plus his injury record isn't great. If the club and CH feel they can get better value elsewhere, then I have no reason to doubt their judgement.

    Without naming names or anything. What's supposed to be so bad about his attitude? Dont have to go into too many details, but is it cos he was always turning up later? Being horrible to club staff? Slagging off our wonderful west stand?

    Although Watters is technically an out and out striker I feel like Cleary would offer more up front on his own than Max would, so technically that’s 3 we have ahead of him

    I’ve only seen that cameo off the bench so I don’t know how good Cleary is

    Is that why Benson and Watters were always injured?

    I think you're wrong there, re Conor. According to Wiki, he played just 31 games for Villa in the PL, and 101 in the Championship.

    Not possible. He joined them in January and then they went up the season after. So he couldn't have realistically played many more than 60 for them in the Championship.

    I stand corrected. However according to wiki Phillips’s never played higher than league one.

    That doesn't add up if we're talking about Championship games just for Villa. It's a 49 game season including playoff games, and during his time with Villa, they were in the Championship for one full season and another 1/3 the season before.

    According to wiki he played 2 full seasons and a half in the Championship with them, see below.

    They weren’t. As I’ve said, they were promoted in May 2019. They beat Derby in the playoff final. They lost to Fulham at Wembley the year before.

    He left us in January 2017. Villa went up via play-offs in May 2019.

    In League One for us (excluding any play-off games)

    Phillips has made a goal contribution every 166 minutes.

    Hourihane finished up with one every 166 minutes.

    Apologies, I stand corrected. I was convinced they went up the season after he joined them.

    It’s alright. I still can’t believe it was over 10 years since he joined us under Danny Wilson. Life moves fast.
